Even the great chemistry between the actors couldn't save this drama...
Maybe I'll manage to get through the rest of the episodes, but my opinion can only get worse at this point.GMM has a habit of ruining the last episodes of its really good dramas, but Kidnap only kept its quality maybe through the first two episodes. I feel like everything is happening too fast. Sure, Ohm and Leng have chemistry, but that alone isn't enough to save this drama. This didn’t need to be a dark romance because GMM is capable of making good romantic comedies. For some reason, Kidnap is too sweet to be a dark romance, yet it still tries to touch on more serious topics, which doesn’t make it a comedy either. The worst part of all this is that I was genuinely excited about this drama from the moment the trailer came out. Ohm can bring out the best in new actors, and he could create chemistry even with a chair, so I wasn’t too worried about the acting part. The plot seemed interesting, something new, with no high school setting in the background. Plus, the cast was solid—Ohm (the other one) as the younger brother, Title, who’s also already an experienced actor. The idea was good, but aside from that and the casting, nothing else worked out for the creators.

SKYNANI BEST ACTORS EVER
GUYS I'M IN ACTUAL TEARS THAT WAS THE BEST SERIES I HAVE EVER WATCHED I'M SO FOR REAL. FROM ACTING TO PLOTLINE. ALL THE CHARACTERS WERE SO WELL WRITTEN I'M IN ACTUAL SHOCK IT CAME FROM GMMTV. AND THE MUSIC WAS SO ON POINT AND SO GOOD. GUYS WATCH IT YOU WON'T REGRET. Actually I wasn't planning to watch it in the first place but im so glad I did bc that was the best experience of my life. I dare to say it was so much better then the original. Also no pointless ads, no pointles sound effects - just pure art. I might seem biased but I was waiting for AGES for gmm to make something like this.Was this review helpful to you?

on the edge of death AND more sexy then ever
First SPOILERS ASIDE it was a really great drama. Love the acting and the story. It had some cliche moments but it really didn't bother me bc it was well written and almost all of the characters were behaving in a way that made perfect sense to me.What I loved the most about this drama was the details.
[SPOILER FROM NOW ON] For example at the beginning we see how all of his fishes eventually dies and later on we see that THE RINGS THEY ONCE WORE are in the FISH TUNK. AND SHOES. Like she got expensive fancy boots and she really liked them and when they got lost she was sulking BUT she never chose them, she was just facing the fact that she need to wear them. AND SHE CHOSE THAT FKING UGLY AHH SHOES AND HAEJO BOUGHT THEM. AND THEY LITERALLY SAVED HER LIFE LIKE WHAAT. Absolute cinema if you'd ask me.
What I didn't like was the whole Sunglasses John Dude plot. It was so obviously gay and then just like that it was not??? I SAW GAY SO I SAID GAY and I won't elaborate. Watch again if you don't know what I'm talking about. It was just so stupid. I also hated how after ONE meeting with his sister he never see her again. I JUST LOVE TRAGIC FAMILY BONDING and I was hoping he'd give her the love she deserved but he just went to meet his stupid father okay give me nothing.
I could like the ending more. It was not bad at all and his last sight being her was tragically lovely but I was so ready to Jaemi falling pregnant after all, having a kid and telling them stories about their father...
